Repairing Your Acura Vigor Tire

Urban areas are booming.
New roads are being built, and old ones are getting a face lift.
There's construction around every corner!
New progress is exciting, but the road debris it leaves behind may mean trouble for your tires.
If the road has been rough on your 1992 Acura Vigor tires, Firestone Complete Auto Care can help.
Our tire technicians can determine whether it's safe to plug and patch the tire, or whether it needs to be replaced.
To start, we’ll consider the location of tire damage, the type of issue, the size and scope of the damage, and the amount of wear on your tires.

If a repair on your 1992 Acura Vigor tire is feasible and safe,
we’ll get to work on the steps to fix it:
(1) Separate the tire from the vehicle wheel,
(2) fill in the area that’s been punctured to prevent damage from moisture, and
(3) re-seal the inside lining of your tire so that air won’t escape.

Tire Replacement for Your Acura Vigor

Unfortunately, some 1992 Acura Vigor tire damage can’t be effectively repaired.
Even if your tire damage is minor, if your tires have less than 2/32nd inch of tread remaining, a repair isn’t possible (or safe).
At this tread depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced.
If your tire is not yet worn down, there are other forms of damage that simply can’t be repaired, like
a puncture in the tire that is ¼ inch or greater in diameter;
a puncture in the tire sidewall (or anywhere else that’s not within the tread area);
multiple punctures that are too close together (less than 16 inches between them);
and major cuts or separated treads.

Depending on what Acura recommends for your car, you’ll want to consider purchasing one new tire, two new tires, or a new full set.
For vehicles with AWD, manufacturers recommend replacing all four tires simultaneously. This is because the AWD system can only function optimally when all tires are uniform.
But, if you’ve recently replaced your tires and they don’t have significant wear, a new set might not be needed.
It’s possible that you will only need to replace the tire that’s damaged – just make sure it’s the same size, type, and brand as the rest of your tires.
Need help? A tire technician can walk you through the options and help you determine what’s best for your vehicle’s performance and longevity.

Do I Need a Tire Inspection for My Acura Vigor?

A flat tire? That’s pretty hard to ignore. But other tire damage? It’s not always obvious!
Tire damage can also show itself through subtle symptoms, like dents in your wheel rims, excessive noise coming from the exhaust system, bumps or bulges in tire sidewalls, or even leaks underneath the car.
Stop tire damage in its tracks. Start with a tire inspection on your 1992 Acura Vigor.

Frequently Asked Acura Vigor Tire Repair Questions

Can I drive my Acura on a flat tire?
Driving on a flat or underinflated tire can put extra stress on your wheels and alignment. While it’s sometimes necessary to drive a short distance on a flat tire to get to a safe place, don’t take any other trips in your Vigor until you can have the flat tire repaired or replaced.

Is temporary sealant bad for my Acura's tires?
Fast fixes are a mixed blessing. They’ll help you get your Acura Vigor to Firestone Complete Auto Care, but don’t count on them to keep you on the road for very long. Using a temporary sealant may also void a Bridgestone or Firestone tire warranty.

What’s the harm in using my spare tire for a while?
Don't rely on your spare tire for too long. Your 1992 Acura Vigor may come equipped with a compact spare tire. A spare is different than an everyday tire and is only designed to be driven a certain number of miles at lower speeds.
